These are the slides that accompany the lecture in the video located at: http://onemansblog.com/winordie Although these slides are integrated into the video (thanks to Cali Lewis), there have been requests for them because of legibility in the small online video format. I highly recommend that people new to this presentation actually watch the 1.5 hour lecture to get the context. If not... well, hopefully slideshare will at least let you see the speaker's notes for the slides that have them. Finally, there is an accompanying blog post which covers additional sources for advertising and revenue generation here: http://onemansblog.com/advertising From the opening slide: -------------------------- Every once in a while I like to lead off with a little controversy to keep people on their toes. I thought this was a fun title for a presentation, so here we go. :-) A little while back, I was listening to someone who has a whole lot of followers on Twitter spouting off at the mouth as if they were a social media expert. The person had never had a real job. Had no traffic on their own Web site. And as far as I can tell, they never really made any real money at anything. But here they were, standing on a stage telling other people how to do their jobs, how to get more traffic, and how to make money! Its not unusual though. I hear people all the time explaining with all sorts of complex theories how things “should” work. As if to explain exactly and scientifically the easiest way to do things. Well, screw that! This is not easy! I prefer the stupid, brute force method because it has worked for me. So next time someone comes along trying to tell you an easier way to do it that is different from what I’ve told you, just ask them to show you the traffic as proof before you listen to them. In ancient Greece, people like this would be known as Sophists. And they don’t deserve your respect. So, today I’m going to give you some advice. You can take it and be a winner. Or you can listen to the Sophists and your blog will Die.

Editor's Notes
- Every once in a while I like to lead off with a little controversy to keep people on their toes. I thought this was a fun title for a presentation, so here we go. :-) A little while back, I was listening to someone who has a whole lot of followers on Twitter spouting off at the mouth as if they were a social media expert. The person had never had a real job. Had no traffic on their own Web site. And as far as I can tell, they never really made any real money at anything. But here they were, standing on a stage telling other people how to do their jobs, how to get more traffic, and how to make money! Its not unusual though. I hear people all the time explaining with all sorts of complex theories how things &#x201C;should&#x201D; work. As if to explain exactly and scientifically the easiest way to do things. Well, screw that! This is not easy! I prefer the stupid, brute force method because it has worked for me. So next time someone comes along trying to tell you an easier way to do it that is different from what I&#x2019;ve told you, just ask them to show you the traffic as proof before you listen to them. In ancient Greece, people like this would be known as Sophists. And they don&#x2019;t deserve your respect. So, today I&#x2019;m going to give you some advice. You can take it and be a winner. Or you can listen to the Sophists and your blog will Die.
- Ok. Tony didn&#x2019;t ask for it. But I&#x2019;m quite sensitive to the fact that he does a ton of work to make these events happen and there are real costs associated with them even when space is donated. Please help him defray these costs!
- Lets do this!
- I&#x2019;m just like you, except that I&#x2019;m coming at you from every direction. Some people here only know me from one or two of these perspectives. Some from several. The more exposure you have to me through different mediums, the more top of mind I have - even if you don&#x2019;t particularly like me!

The more exposure you have to me through different mediums, the more top of mind I have - even if you don&#x2019;t particularly like me!
- I&#x2019;m about to stand here and give you all kinds of advice, and then we&#x2019;ll go out for beers. But at the end of the day, if you take nothing else away from my lecture, you remember that I am your competition! Your content has to beat mine! I guarantee all the SEO tricks in the world aren&#x2019;t going to put your site higher on the list than mine. And they damn sure aren&#x2019;t going to to get you the loyal readership that I have. The only way you are going to out perform me, is to out produce me!
- Here are some stats from my blog. By show of hands, how many people here have a site which averages more than 2,000 page views per day? Don&#x2019;t forget, as the CEO of Woopra, I know that 95% of the world doesn&#x2019;t. Well, let&#x2019;s be clear about one thing. These are the stats from just a single page on my blog. One article. That article got Dugg, it&#x2019;s at the top of the Google results, and it has hundreds of comments. And it took me about 20 hours to research, write, and edit it. 20 hours. One post. It was written 2 years ago and is still getting 2,000 visitors per day. It&#x2019;s been read well over 1 Million times.
- Blogging comes in all forms. Text, Video, Audio. It all counts. I use Viddler and YouTube for uploading videos. Viddler allows long videos to be posted. YouTube has a vast audience and lots of search traffic.
- Sharing photos on Flickr can drive traffic to your site, and they increase your &#x201C;name brand&#x201D; awareness and reputation.
- The numbers you see here are only the views that come from site visits and don&#x2019;t include the iTunes subscriptions which are much larger. Audio podcasts are popular with people looking for content for their daily commutes etc.
- Almost every blogger out there has their targets set incorrectly! People are trying to figure out how to make money. Or what topic to write about. That is just wrong! What you SHOULD be doing is thinking about how the hell you can possibly make whatever article you are writing more authoritative, more educational and more enlightening! The better you do, the more you will be rewarded with search and referral traffic.
- But Wait! There&#x2019;s More!
- Social Media is about building interest, not selling stuff!
- Unless you&#x2019;re the New York Times, I wouldn&#x2019;t put out &#x201C;factual&#x201D; but boring titles. If the article was worth writing, then give it a tweet that it deserves to get it some traffic.

- Who here has NOT had your server crash yet? You need this more than anyone. And you should set it up so that it automatically backs up your DB weekly and emails it to a GMail account which will store the backups in case they are ever needed.
- Email feeds not only give you more readers, they actually generate traffic back to your site. Over 350 people came to my site as a result of the email referrals in a 30 day period. Many will leave comments, or they are following links to &#x201C;Related Articles&#x201D;. If you get enough readers this way, Google will also put links in your email feed which can earn you some money.

- Remember when I said that content was King? Well, one thing we know is that if you don&#x2019;t write it, you definitely won&#x2019;t get traffic for it! I spent 8 hours writing this article! It took a long time to do the research, and then I had to watch all of the videos and do a ton of screen caps, resize them and everything else.

- Within a week, the blog was scoring in the top 200 results for various terms 11 times.
- After only one week, hundreds of visitors searching for Lady Gaga arriving on OMB. What happens after Lady Gaga does something publicly that generates a lot of publicity? I&#x2019;ll get a LOT of search traffic!
- Within a three weeks, the blog was in the top 200 rankings in the major search engines .
- Over 5,000 pageviews in the first month from the addition of a single post. But remember, it took 8 hours to write that blog post!
- Woopra was telling me that a ton of the traffic was having only ONE pageview! I then followed a Google link and figured out that the visitors were stranded on the individual image pages and couldn&#x2019;t get back to the big collection! So I went into the blog post, pulled up the image editor, and added a description to all of the images.
- But Wait! There&#x2019;s More!
- Your physical server&#x2019;s load bearing capability matters too. Every time I&#x2019;ve upgraded my server, traffic has increased from Google. If you think about it logically, Google could easily crash your server, so they have to be careful not to overload it.
- Do not let people leave comments with links to obviously commercial sites. Do not let people leave &#x201C;worthless&#x201D; comments that add NO value to your site. Real visitors will not want to participate in your comments if you let them run wild or never respond. You&#x2019;ll get a bad link neighborhood on your site and Google will punish you.
- Stop trying to decide between tiny ads to not annoy people you don&#x2019;t want to annoy, and huge ads for people you don&#x2019;t care about! You can do BOTH! I earn over $1,000 per month from these ads.

- All of these can be used in conjunction with the No Adverts for Friends plugin.

- Either Alaska really is boring, or Bubble Shooter really is the most addicting game of all time! 174 visits! 58 hours spent on this one page. And this is not unusual for this post!
- This person always comes to play Bubble Shooter - but always starts at Google! Are bookmarks broken? Shows what creatures of habit we all are.
- This visitor did an image search for shadow puppets and arrives on the site. Then followed a Related Link to a Kinetic Machine post. Remembered the Kinetic Machine post and came back multiple times, finding it the exact same way each time. Again! It&#x2019;s all about the content! I had enough, and enough variety, that they remember it and seek it out.
